Protocols

PPTP, IPSec, OpenVPN

VPNac is headquartered in Romania. This service offers clients for desktop and mobile devices. It also provides all three of the most common VPN protocols. They offer a good privacy policy and a fast network.

Pricing and Plans

VPN.ac offers “virtually unlimited” traffic and six simultaneous connections on all of its accounts. The actual limit on data transfers is 2TB per month, which is a huge amount so the “virtually unlimited” claim is justified.
The pricing is as follows:

One month: $9.00

Three months: $24.00

Six months: $36.00

One year: $58.00

You can pay via PayPal, credit cards, prepaid cash cards and Bitcoin.

Free Trial / Money Back Guarantee

There is a seven-day money back guarantee on all VPNac accounts. There is no free trial.

Privacy & Anonymity

VPNac doesn’t log. They keep as much data as they need to do troubleshooting on a separate, encrypted server from the VPN servers.

Torrent Policy

Torrents are allowed on this service.

Customer Support

VPNac provides a ticketing system for customer support. There’s also a live chat window you can use to get help.

Product Testing

VPNac has a simple but very well-designed client. It has a tabbed interface. Click on the Advanced tab and you’ll see the kill switch option first on the list. Server selection is done via dropdown menu from the Main tab.

Windows, Mac OSX, Android, IPhone, etc.

VPNac offers clients for Windows, Mac and Android.

Speed Test

VPNac With VPN Speedtest

The speed test on VPNac was very impressive. In fact, it barely slowed our connection down at all. We connected from Albuquerque to the closest server in their network, located in Dallas. The connection slowed our data transfer down by less than 1Mbps.

Conclusion

VPNac was good in testing. Taking a look at their privacy policy makes them even more attractive. To top it all off, they take Bitcoin. For those who want to use a VPN for P2P, these are all great features to look for. The company’s live support wasn’t online when we tested the system, meaning it’s not 24/7, but the ticketing system provides another option. Overall, this was an impressive service and a company worth keeping an eye on.
